In recent weeks, India has reported a resurgence of serious infectious disease cases, including outbreaks of highly contagious respiratory viruses. These developments have raised public health concerns both domestically and internationally.

Health experts emphasize that wearing a face mask remains one of the simplest and most effective ways to reduce the spread of respiratory infections. Masks help block virus-containing droplets, protect vulnerable populations, and reduce pressure on healthcare systems—especially in crowded or poorly ventilated spaces.
We strongly encourage the public to wear masks in public transportation, healthcare facilities, workplaces, and other crowded indoor areas. Individuals experiencing symptoms such as fever, cough, or fatigue should take extra precautions, including mask use and limiting close contact with others.
Preventive actions taken today can save lives tomorrow. By wearing a mask, practicing good hygiene, and staying informed through official health authorities, we can all play a part in protecting our communities and preventing further spread of disease.
Public health is a shared responsibility. Let us act with care, responsibility, and solidarity.
